Chromosome-Level Genome Assembly of the Hemiparasitic Taxillus chinensis (DC.) Danser.
Article in Genome biology and evolution, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The hemiparasitic Taxillus chinensis (DC.) Danser is a root-parasitizing medicinal plant with photosynthetic ability, which is lost in other parasitic plants. However, the cultivation and medical application of the species are limited by the recalcitrant seeds of the species, and even though the molecular mechanisms underlying this recalcitrance have been investigated using transcriptomic and proteomic methods, genome resources for T. chinensis have yet to be reported. Accordingly, the aim of the present study was to use nanopore, short-read, and high-throughput chromosome conformation capture sequencing to construct a chromosome-level assembly of the T. chinensis genome. The final genome assembly was 521.90 Mb in length, and 496.43 Mb (95.12%) could be grouped into nine chromosomes with contig and scaffold N50 values of 3.80 and 56.90 Mb, respectively. In addition, a total of 33,894 protein-coding genes were predicted, and gene family clustering identified 11 photosystem-related gene families, thereby indicating photosynthetic ability, which is a characteristic of hemiparasitic plants. This chromosome-level genome assembly of T. chinensis provides a valuable genomic resource for elucidating the genetic basis underlying the recalcitrant characteristics of T. chinensis seeds and the evolution of photosynthesis loss in parasitic plants.
